    Talking Upcoming Anime Series

    Like the title said.
    This april will mark the beginning of 47 series. Some are new. Others are 2nd seasons (that had months of vacation).

    The complete list (in spanish) can be found here:
    -> http://kickinarchive.blogspot.com/20...-estrenos.html

    [Start of Edit]

    Apart from the 47 series listed on the webpage above, this other 4 are added to the list:
    Sky Girls
    Otogi Juushi Akazukin ~Fairy Musketeers~
    Saint October
    Tokimeki Memorial

    All from Konami.
    Bringing a grand total of 51 series (for now?)


    [End of Edit]


    So... which ones are you guys would be waiting for or will be watching?

    Personally I am waiting for these:

    .hack//ROOTS
    Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE 2nd Season
    xxxHolic
    Makai Senki Disgaea

    ...couldn't you find a list in English?...

    nm, I found it

    Spring Anime Lineup, in English (starts April)

    don't know much about most of these shows but some I'm looking forward to are
    Black Lagoon
    .hack/Roots
    Ju oh Sei (prison anime, one I have highest expectations for)
    Ray the animation
    xxxHolic

    I don't know much about disgaea, but the promo didn't really impress me that much... Not like I really have time for many more new anime...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    A friend of mine edits that page (several months ago I used to write for that blog as well). So well... heheh... sorry it was in spanish.
    Thnks for the link in english as well.

    Only watching the Promo for Disgaea is not enough actually. Most of those of us that are waiting for it played the game before (and I can't wait to play Disgaea 2).

    And I know what you say about new series.
    Currently Im just watching Naruto, Bleach, Kashimashi, Mai Otome, Fate/Stay-Night and Canvas 2. I believe at least the last three should be ending before or at the first two weeks of the new season.

    EDIT:
    Although I see that list in english include several already released titles (like Shinigami no Ballad) or Dvd's (like Full Metal Alchemist Premium)

    I'm certainly looking forward to AMG second season... with some misgivings (like ... how they're going to make an actual plot <_<). Same with Makai Senki Disgaea ... I'm hoping it's going to have some sort of original storytelling, and isn't strictly a retelling of the game.

    A couple other things look interesting ... but as always, there's a lot of things that look pretty terrible in that lineup too

    It looks really promising.
    I'm really looking forward to:
    .hack//G.U. -> I wonder what 'style' it will be. Like //sign or like //Dusk
    Tsubasa Chronicle S2 -> Can't wait to see more of kuro-wanwan
    AMG Season2 -> Season 1 was addictive, so I'm looking forward to the next season.
    School Rumble 2nd Semester -> More Harima??

    I'll give some other series a chance as well.. but not all 40 of them

    Of what I know Roots is the prelude of the GU games.
    It takes place 3 years after Dusk, but the previous The World is gone, destroyed by a fire on the main servers.
    The story takes place in The World R2. But when this new version came many left the game (20 million users became just 12 million users) because they could not migrate their old characters.

    The main character is a Multi-Weapon (new class) called Haseo, who is a Player Killer. According to information on the anime and the games, a friend of Haseo will be Data-Drained by a rogue character called Tri-Edge, who resembles a Zombie-Kite.

    The style should an improved version of Sign, remember Dusk was done in a "cute-comic-relief-way", or at least the anime was. The Dusk manga was way better and more serious (it even had references to .hack//AI Buster and .hack//Zero, and also featured other characters like Albireo, Lycoris, Hokuto, Kazu, Mistral, Orca, Wiseman and the original Kite and BlackRose)

    I intend to continue with the second season of ARIA since I enjoyed the first season so much, as well as the next season of School Rumble.

    Disgaea will definitely be worth a try, I'm also a huge fan of the game.

    NANA, RAY -the animation-, xxxHolic, Tokko, and Black Lagoon are all titles I follow the manga of fairly consistently, so I'll be looking forward to those, particularly NANA, which has become my favorite series while waiting between Berserk chapters.

    - Ah! My Goddess (2nd season)
    - Makai Senki Disgaea
    - School Rumble (2nd season)

    Me, I find it difficult to start something I've never heard about, so I'll be waiting to see which ones are the popular ones before I start watching them.

    There are a shitload I'm looking forward to as you might imagine, but the main ones have to be:

    Tokko - With the low level of manga content, I hope they don't fuck it up. At least keep the hot girls, the violence, and the gore.

    Witch Blade
    Ray - saw a bit of the manga, looked good.
    NANA
    Air Gear - they'll probably fuck it up
    Jyu Oh Sei
    Kiba
    Strawberry Panic - got to give love to the yuri
    Utawarerumono - a promo came out a couple of weeks ago and it looked great.
    Soul Link
    Black Lagoon - the manga didn't look good, but the anime might be
    School Rumbe 2nd Term - this will be awesome.
    xxxHOLiC
    Tsubasa Chronicles Season 2

    That is scary. Considering the fact there are series like Futago Hime and Digimon in that list. There's even a yaoi title.

    I also plan to get AMG Season 2, but to tell the truth... even though I've downloaded the 26 eps of the first season, I have not seen past ep 20. Need to watch them before seeing season 2...

    EDIT:
    Deleted double post.
